15th June.
Tried for an early start, everything was dry, but as the sun came up it started to get damp which delayed me a bit trying to get the tent as dry as possible.

Beautiful morning |
An interesting route down to Sant Aniol d'Aguja parts of it clinging to the rock face.

On the edge |
Sant Aniol d'Aguja was a Benedictine monastery established in the 9th century but now not much more than a ruin that has been in the process of restoration for years.

There was a notice saying that they sold cans of fizz for €3 but no sign of anyone.

Bouncy bridge |
A good bouncy bridge over the river and the start of a long climb up through trees to today's high-point, at
1126 meters this was the last time I will be above
1000 meters on this walk.

Views over the trees |
All the way down to Albanyà then, mostly in the sun, the last section down the concrete road with extra reflected heat.
